THE BIGGEST TEAM
WINS THE KMR BAT CUP!
When you register for any of the divisions being offered, you will be asked if you would like to JOIN or CREATE a team. If someone has already created the team, simply select the team name you wish to join from the dropdown list. If you are the first team member to register, come up with a clever and fun name to get things started!
Then if you have the biggest team to finish the KMR, YOUR TEAM will WIN the KMR BAT (Big ass trophy) CUP! Each year the KMR BAT CUP will have the Team name inscribed on it of the previous year's winner. Your team will actually get to take home a replica smaller version to keep!! The question is, will you DOMINATE each year and have the biggest team name all over it?
